Can’t Feel Your Heartbeat No More

Categories:

“This is a song that started coming together back in March of 2013 . I was driving through the Virginia swamps and headed for North Carolina. The road was long and I had plenty of time to play a collection of cd’s from the late 60’s, 70’s and 80’s which I’m sure, at least in part, inspired me to write. The reason for my travel was to do an inspection on a new home that my wife and I were in the process of buying. I was by myself in a new, but strange place trying to find my way around. At some point, I started to flood with emotions and then the tears began to fall. The cool shallow waters of reality started to rise with the coming tide and settled when I began to think about the miles that I had put behind me, how far I really was from home and the life I had known. There were people and relationships that I would have to let go.
“Can’t Feel Your Heartbeat is about this idea of stepping back, letting go, moving on and being torn between two different worlds in the hope that maybe, the one person someone really loves will show some kind of sign or give the other some reason to hold back or reconsider their decision to move forward without them. This song has a groove, back beat and melody that make for an interesting contrast with regard to theme, metaphor and subject matter. Furthermore, this song will be included with eight other tracks for debut album: Will Francis-“Behind The Personas. Through the use of imagery, faces, characters and personas, this album presents the surface level world we all live in. Underneath, is the music. This is the real, genuine, honest punch in the gut stuff that people can relate to.
